Default The difference between me and a good poker player (NC, retarded)

Good poker players can fold here. I waited till my time bank was at 3 seconds before hitting call. If anyone else wants a big bet feel free to sit at my tables.

Villain LAGGY pf and average postflop.

Preflop: Hero is SB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

Flop: (10 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises</font>, MP folds, CO calls, Button folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, BB calls, CO calls.

Turn: (9.50 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>

I don't think calling is that bad. it's possible he hit 2-pair here. If you don't like folding why not just check/call?

1st, why not 3bet PF.
2nd, a call here is not bad.

NH. I think folding is bad. There's 13+BB in the pot. Folding a set for one bet is awful.

You say 'good' players can fold here, but I think it's good players trying too hard to play well and playing shitty instead that fold here.

Given the pot size I think a call is in order. But then again I love to get to SD. Its my happy place

Not betting the river here is awful. As is not calling the raise. I play it the same.
